Were That Song, making it the second Juno win for Kissel, who won in 2014 for
Breakthrough Artist of the Year.
He was the first country artist to take home the title in 17 years (since Shania Twain). Among his other accolades are he was named the International Artist of the Year at the 2017 Worldwide Radio Summit in Hollywood, CA (an honor bestowed upon Ed Sheeran and Adele in the last two years respectively). He is the 2017 and 2018 Canadian Country Music Awards’ Male Vocalist of the Year, 4x Winner at the 2016 CCMA Awards, 12x Billboard Canadian Top 10 Singles chart, and more.

Who Is Guylaine Tanguay?
A little controversy on Facebook
with who is Guylaine Tanguay and how did she get nominated over Meghan
Patrick, Tenille Townes, Jess Moskaluke. Canada Country Aircheck had not
heard of Guylaine!

she grew up in a family where music has a place of choice. Thanks to her
immense talent, her perseverance and her contagious energy, Guylaine Tanguay
has built herself a name and a credibility of the most solid in the Quebec
country universe. She is a sought-after artist in festivals across the
province. Her name even travelled to Nashville, Tennessee, the world capital of
country music, where she recently recorded some original songs. Stats Facebook: 20,671 likes Twitter 210

Brothers, James Barker Band, Brett Kissel, The Reklaws, Dallas Smith and
